A covenant is also a “one way” promise.  It’s an unconditional promise that you make for the benefit of someone else.  Chris Brannon continues in our series by talking about covenant living.  A covenant is not a mutual agreement for mutual benefit promise.  It’s a choice that you make to benefit someone else or a group of “someone-else’s” without concern about whether it may benefit you.

A covenant relationship is not like a contract, which is easily voided when one party does not fulfill their end of the deal, or makes a mistake.  Rather, a covenant is more like a marriage where the commitment to each other is inseparable.  God made a covenant relationship with us.
